"Do you think Donald Trump ever regrets winning the presidency?" Stephen Colbert asked on Tuesday's Late Show. "Not as much as we do, but maybe a little? Because right now he's being investigated by multiple congressional committees, the Mueller report could drop at any minute, and that flag he hugged is being interviewed by Ronan Farrow." (For what it's worth, Eric Trump told Fox & Friends host Brian Kilmeade Tuesday he has his doubts the presidency was worth the sacrifices.)
Colbert listed some of the pending investigations into Trump, his administration, his business, and his family, then showed how "Trump is feeling the pressure" by reading some of his tweets and showing a particularly "sweaty hot crazy" moment at CPAC. "Trump did what he always does when he feels down," he said. "He found comfort from his friends in the TV, tweeting this quote from Sean Hannity — see if you notice the small typo." In case you didn't, he read it and illustrated it with a Cathy comic.
